“THE ENHANCED VERSION OF THE REVERED GLUE COMPRESSOR GETS THE PLUGIN TREATMENT IT SO LONG DESERVED”
Madrid, Spain: Heritage Audio® is proud to announce the availability of the HA-609A Dual Mono/Stereo Compressor/Limiter plugin in native form.
The HA-609A Elite Series was never intended as a simple recreation. It was designed as an evolution — preserving the character of a legendary compressor while expanding its capabilities for today’s production environments.
An entirely discrete Class A topology, three Carnhill St Ives transformers per channel, and the addition of a fast attack mode for both the compressor and limiter are just a few of the enhancements that helped elevate the HA-609A into a modern classic.
The HA-609A plugin has been developed using current-generation component-level modelling, allowing every stage of the signal path, from gain reduction behavior to harmonic response, to be captured with exceptional accuracy.
We are really proud to be able to finally capture the weight, punch, and musical response that made this classic iconic with a level of accuracy that simply wasn’t possible years ago.
DIODE BRIDGE COMPRESSION: THE WEIGHT BEHIND THE MIX
At its core, the HA-609A plugin is about one thing: the sound of authority, cohesion, and confidence that has shaped countless records, now realized with modern modelling accuracy and workflow-ready features. Not a throwback, not a compromise but a refined evolution that delivers legendary glue, punch, and musical control exactly where today’s engineers need it. When the mix needs to feel finished, the HA-609A plugin delivers the weight that holds it all together.

About Heritage Audio (www.heritageaudio.com)
Heritage Audio was founded in 2011 by Peter Rodriguez. As a civil engineer and music producer, he went from building wind turbines to following his true passion — developing recording equipment with the vintage sound that he himself admired so much and so many others yearned for. Fortunately for all, he was able to master the key elements necessary to make high-quality recording gear affordable and reliable by combining his analytical mindset with his experience as a producer within a relatively short space of time. Today, the 15-person team has expanded its production plant located in the heart of Madrid, Spain, where it collectively continues to follow a philosophy of making vintage sound possible for today’s studios, successfully introducing innovative products to rank amongst the most popular brands with top retailers throughout the world.
As Heritage Audio marks its 15th anniversary in 2026, the motto “Expect the Unexpected” sets the tone for an ambitious year filled with new product launches.
